My nightmare....

comment from SLA attendee and Network+ teacher: Isn't this a metaphor for SLA-style learning? It might look a bit messy to the traditional teacher/learner, but even so.... it works quite well. - Chris Champion

Fig. 4: Comments from Bulgaria.
We have strict legislation about the distance between computers. The distance between the computers in the classroom is some meters. I saw the computers in other countries and I think only here [in Bulgaria] the space is defined from our laws.

I found that we have a law which saves the student's health in the school. According this law the computers must have between distance about 2.5 meters and the students must have 5 quadrate meters to work in the classroom. This law fixes the color of the walls, the meters of the desks, and the number of the computers per room at a maximum of 15."

“We have computers in two labs. Students have computer lessons in one lab. The second one can be used freely by the other teachers. Also, students have an access to computer in the library. However, they are out of date, and very slow.”
